I grew up in a small, idyllic affluent town in the Western part of Connecticut, USA. The town definitely did not match my personality. My high school years were filled with the proverbial teenage fun, although not too much by me. I stayed close to home and pursued my B.A. in English Comparative Literature from a local college and then continued on for my M.A in English Professional Writing. I have always had a love for reading and literature and only furthered that during my studies. During my M.A. studies I decided it was time to challenge myself and work in a field that I have long admired and dreamt off: being a writer.
Having entered the lifestyle a few years ago, I write erotica with a preference toward BDSM themes. I enjoy exploring the emotional connection and emotions behind the D/s relationships and why we like what we like.

I watched as she walked away. I could tell what Caleb saw in her. She was fun to be around. Carefree and real. I turned around and bumped into a male body. Slowly, I raised my eyes. I saw black boots that were attached to jeans that hung low on a set of hips. The tight black tee shirt clung to an abdomen and chest as I continued to raise my eyes. My head tilted back as I finally made eye contact.
“Excuse me,” the tenor voice said as his hand grasped my elbow, steadying me. As soon as our eyes locked, my stomach hurled. I turned quickly to avoid hitting him with the contents.
“Oh my God. I’m so sorry.” I turned away embarrassed as shit.
“It’s okay. Are you alright?” the voice asked. Our eyes locked again as I turned my head toward him. “Faith?”
Gabe’s hand let go of me, causing my body to hit the ground.
“Gabe.” I sat on the ground staring at him, waiting for him to say something, anything. Gabe continued to stare back at me, running his hands through his hair. “Say something.” I pleaded.
“I don’t know what to-“
“Oh my goodness, Faith, are you okay?” Kat ran up to me with the rest of the band in tow.
“I’m fine.” I glanced at Gabe, who had stood and walked away. A familiar face stuck out a hand, and I grabbed it as I lifted myself onto my feet. Jaxson held my hand as we looked at each other. Maybe this wasn’t a great idea.
“What are you doing here, Faith?” he demanded.
“A job, Jaxson. I was hired to do a job.” Jax let go of my hand and threw his hands into his pockets. I turned to Kat, who was talking to Caleb. Realization fell upon her face as her mouth formed the ‘O’ sound. Fuck!
“Kat, I’m not sure this is such a good idea. I’m sorry. I-“ I turned away.
“No. It is perfectly fine. We have rented the company and the space. Now, let’s get the job done.” I watched as she stomped off toward my ex and my brother. I turned around and saw Caleb standing there.
“Caleb, I don’t want to discuss this. I knew I shouldn’t have accepted the job. I don’t think Kat knew.”
“Of course she didn’t. I’m not upset or angry. Listen, Faith, we all have our own burdens to bear. I know that all to well myself. You need to atone for what you did to them. For now, I am just happy to know you are safe and okay.” He smiled and waited.
“That wasn’t the talk I thought I’d get from you. But, for what it’s worth, I am glad to see you happy as well.” Caleb nodded and turned as Kat’s voice boomed through set.
“Alright, ladies. Let’s get through this shoot, and then you can all go home and cry to yourselves.”
I laughed. I did like her already.

Excerpt 2: (Gabe’s POV)

I watched from the side of the stage. For the first time, I saw her. Faith was in front of the stage, taking pictures of Reese and Caleb. I stood there and watched her. I watched the way she held her camera. The way she bit her lip as she pondered the next angle. Her hair was up in a loose bun, and she was wearing a pair of jeans and a pink tank top. The camera was slung around her neck, but cradled like a baby in her hand. She moved fluidly back and forth, trying to capture the essence of the moment, of the song. My heart clenched as her eyes met mine and she turned away. I watched as she hurried off toward the opposite side of the stage, ducking behind the curtains that shielded the crew from the fans.
Caleb and Reese finished the song, and Jax and I joined them back on stage. We finished our set and did two more songs as an encore. By the time we were finally done, I was tired, and Faith was nowhere around. What would I say to her anyway? Years of pain, anger and guilt filled my heart and my head. Seeing her this morning had brought it all back. Did I still love her? At that moment, I didn’t know. I don’t think I ever stopped. Fuck!

Excerpt 3: (Faith’s POV)

I took some photos from the side, trying to capture the excitement and feel. I zoomed in on Gabe as he steadily beat the drums. I could see the veins in his muscles as he worked his arms across his kit. The man was good at what he did there was no denying that. I zeroed in on Jax and his finger work on the guitar. Reese was next, followed by Caleb. After getting individual photos, I went out to the front of the stage. I got into a zone, and the rest of the night flew by.
I was packing up and getting ready to say goodbye to Kat when I felt that electricity in the air. I turned around to see Gabe looking at me. I didn’t move, couldn’t if I wanted to. Gabe held me in place with his stare. He took a sip of his beer and just stood against the wall. I just wanted to know what he was thinking? Or did I? We didn’t break the stare until Jax popped in front of me.

Putting a woman on her knees before me is what really
makes my cock hard. I fuck with dominant force and absolute control. I demand
complete surrender from my conquests.

Savage man, loner, warrior… I am dangerous at my core.
I have lived amidst the untamed wild of the rainforest, in a society that
reveres me and where every woman falls before me in subjugation.

Now I’ve been discovered. Forced to return to a world
that I have forgotten about and to a culture that is only vaguely familiar to
my senses.

Dr. Moira Reed is an anthropologist who has been hired
to help me transition back into modern society. It’s her job to smooth away my
rough edges… to teach me how to navigate properly through this new life of
mine. She wants to tame me.

She’ll never win.

I am wild, free and raw, and the only thing I want
from the beautiful Moira Reed is to fuck her into submission.

She wants it, I am certain.

I will give it to her soon.

Yes, very soon, I will become the teacher and she will
become my student. And when I am finished showing her body pleasure like no
other, she’ll know what it feels like to be claimed by an uncivilized man.

About the Author

USA Today Best-Selling author, Sawyer Bennett, is a snarky
southern woman and reformed trial lawyer who decided to finally start putting
on paper all of the stories that were floating in her head. She is married to a
mobster (well, a market researcher) and they have two big, furry dogs who hog
the bed. Sawyer would like to report she doesn’t have many weaknesses but can
be bribed with a nominal amount of milk chocolate.

USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR! Alexx Andria delivers a motorcycle club romance between two very bad, yet sexy men and a woman with enough curves to satisfy them both.
My name is Zoe Delacourte. I thought I was going to build my future on the backs of Jax Traeger and Hunter Ericksen -- bad boys from the wrong side of the tracks, running the notorious motorcycle club, the Kings of Asphalt -- in my mind, the story had practically written itself. I was so naive. Little did I know they were going to change everything I ever knew about myself.
Jax and Hunter. I can't even say their names without trembling.
They don't see a fat girl or a girl who might be pretty if only she'd lose some weight. No, from the moment I walked into their club, they saw a hot, sexy woman with curves for days -- and they couldn't wait to get their hands on me.
Some people call them bad men. They see the rides and the rap sheets and they slap a label on them. I don't care what they've done -- all I care about is what they're going to do to me next.
But loving them is dangerous. In fact, loving them might just get me killed.
*The following MC romance is approximately 41,000 words featuring a strong central love story, danger, and the rough, seedy world dominated by two bad boys and their curvy woman.

Review

By

Wrenn Black, Book Obsessive

I received this book as an arc in exchange for a review, it’s my first encounter with this author and I know it will not be my last. This book is hot and steamy, burning up like asphalt on a hot day!!

No spoilers here, so without giving too much away, the plot involves a reporter Zoë, a sexually inexperienced, curvy beauty trying to write a break-through story. She has a little self-esteem issue and can’t see that she is beautiful. She gets involved with Hunter and Jax, who head the MC gang Kings of Asphalt; they’re from the wrong side of the tracks and are in the only life they know. There’s a murder, intrigue, deception, angst and drama, serious cash and oh yes, some really hot, sweat fanning bedroom scenes, just ever so slightly dark and very enjoyable. Did I mention Ménage?? This is a nicely balanced book, it’s a short read, the plot is not complicated, and the story flows easily, I really couldn’t put it down, I had to know what was going to happen next. I am putting this writer on my short list of favorites.

You know it when you see it but when
pressed, you probably couldn’t describe it. So what is sexy to you? As an
erotic romance writer, I’m constantly working on new stories with some sort of
sexy element to it and sometimes what works for me, might not work for the
reader so I’m always curious as to what others find sexy. For example, in Thor:
The Dark World the hunkalicious Liam Hemsworth and the ever-adorable Natalie
Portman are featured. I think Liam as Thor is hotter than Georgia asphalt but
only when he’s wearing his Thor costume. Yeah, I know, weird. I mean, he’s a
good-looking fellow but when he dons the costume, I melt. There’s something
about the combination of his looks, physique and then that Alpha God-thing that
really does it for me. However, some people prefer their men with close shaves,
wearing buttoned-down business suits. To each his own.

If we could discern the individual elements
of sexy and break it down into a formula…well, we’d be rich! From certain
scents to particular dress…the definition of sexy is as individual as the
person.

Here’s a confession: I love, love, love
Celtic faires. Why? Because the men are dressed in kilts and the women like
drunken harlots (or regal queens). And while I enjoy the women’s outfits, it’s
the kilts that drive me crazy. I love seeing muscular man thighs and catching
an illicit peek of a bollock or two (if they’re wearing them correctly, it
means going commando). Once, at a county fair, there was a traveling blacksmith
troupe that wore kilts as they did their work. For one, they were built like
oxen because pounding on metal all day does wonders for a man’s muscle and two,
it was too easy to imagine being manhandled by the muscular blacksmith, just
like a wench of olde. It just so happens that this particular blacksmith
thought I was pretty cute and tried his best to land me in his bed. I won’t
lie. I was sorely tempted but I was a good girl and left the blacksmith with
nothing but a sweet smile and a memory. However, in my imagination, that
blacksmith and I have done some delightfully dirty things together. Ahh…good
times!

So what is your definition of sexy? What
turns your crank? Polished businessmen? Swarthy barbarians? A musical genius?
Let’s gab like girlfriends and share!
